Advice for Farmers and Landowners

The majority of the rights of way network in Lincolnshire crosses land in active agricultural production although they can pass through other sites, for example, industrial sites or private gardens. Farmers and landowners have a key role to play in working with the County Council to keep the access network in good shape.

Most rights of way are maintainable at public expense and so the responsibility to maintain these routes rests with the County Council as the Highway Authority.
